3. Personality Assessment and User Preference Data

Our platform includes a personality assessment feature designed to enhance your story experience. This feature collects and processes the following types of data:

Generated story content is processed via AI systems hosted in the United States. This processing does not involve any personal data unless you explicitly enter such information.

We do not sell your personal data. However, we reserve the right to sell anonymized user data to third parties for research, analytics, and business development purposes. All data is thoroughly anonymized before any such transactions, ensuring that individual users cannot be identified.

We may share data with trusted service providers who support our operations (e.g., hosting, payment processing, analytics), based on data processing agreements in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.

If data is transferred outside the EU (e.g., to US-based AI providers), we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).
